Nickelback is a Canadian alternative rock group, currently consisting of Chad Kroeger on lead vocals and lead/rhythm guitar, Ryan Peake on lead/rhythm guitar, Mike Kroeger on bass guitar and Daniel Adair on drums (formerly Brandon Kroeger/Ryan Vikedal).Formed in 1995, the band self-released their first EP Hesher in March 1996. This was swiftly followed by their debut album Curb in May, which included the songs Where?, Fly, Left and Window Shopper. Although not commercially successful, the album was re-released in 2002 and earned a gold certification in Canada. Curb also led to the group signing a record deal with EMI and Roadrunner Records.
The rock group released their debut major label album The State in March 2000. It reached number 130 on the Billboard 200 and produced the US Main Rock chart Top 10 hits Leader of Men and Breathe, as well as the Top 30 hit Old Enough. However, it was Nickelback’s third album that would give them mainstream success.
Silver Side Up was released in September 2001. It reached a high of number two in the US chart, as well as number one in the UK and Canada, and sold in excess of eight million copies worldwide. The lead single How Your Remind Me was a phenomenal international success, reaching number one in the US and Canada and eventually becoming American radio’s most-played song of the decade, while the follow-up singles Too Bad and Never Gonna Be Alone Again were UK Top 10 and Top 30 hits respectively.
Since then the group have released a further three albums – The Long Road, All the Right Reasons and Dark Horse – and scored the US Top 10 hits Someday, Photograph, Far Away, Rockstar and Gotta Be Somebody, as well as the Top 20 singles Savin’ Me, If Everyone Cared and If Today Was Your Last Day.
